RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted December 6, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 6, 2018 Hi all, I know I used to have a drawing for thse wagons but it seems to have gone and found a good hiding place. Does anyone have a drawing that I can have a scan of? Trying to make some of these in N Gauge/2mm scale. Anyone able to help? Let me know.....

ChrisH-UK Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 For clarity, do you mean the Metalair design numbered BAHS555xx built by Powell Duffryn or the depressed centre design numbered ALCN112xx? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted December 7, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 7, 2018 The latter are identical to the Farish model aren’t they? Admittedly not a recent release, it lacks the discharge pipes at the ends as on the Metalair ones they do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi NJee, The Farish model is the short version of the Metalair and not accurate for the Alcan Metalair PCA. I know I had drawings some time ago as I have some sketches showing what I would need to do with the Farish Metalair ones to make them more like the ral things. It's no just the barrel length, the chassis length is wrong, as is the suspension type.

RMweb Premium njee20 Posted December 7, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 7, 2018 Yes sorry, not making myself clear, I meant the depressed centre ones Chris mentioned, rather than the Metalair ones, where I know the Alcan variant is different to the Farish model. However the centre depressed tank is an older model than the Metalair one they do make. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
